An Interesting Article

I found an article showing Teen Age's protesting against Teen Vogue using Photo shopped images in their magazine. I find this article highly useful for my essay as we are worried of the impression of Photo Shopped images on the young and how they aspire to be like the women they view, this shows that they understand what goes into a magazine spread sheet and chose to protest against it.
"The girls have collected nearly 30,000 signatures on their Change.org petition, which asks Teen Vogue to "stop altering natural bodies and faces so that real girls can be the new standard of beauty." 
Which is inspiring that these young women want to help make change to the industry, I think it is one thing for  use to notice the misuse of Photoshop but another to participate in a petition or begin one.
